Public transport in Montenegro: tickets bought at bus stations include a terminal/platform fee, making them more expensive (approx 4.8 EUR vs 2.5 EUR).
Boarding buses at local street stops avoids these extra fees. Use apps like 'busticket4.me' or FlixBus for schedules, but note that payment on board is often cash-only.

While a car is recommended for exploring Montenegro, it's possible to travel without one using buses or taxis (via Viber).
Advance train ticket purchase is advised, though online booking is unavailable. Direct bus services from Podgorica Airport to the coast are limited; a transfer via the main bus station is usually required. Podgorica itself is not considered a primary tourist destination.

Avoid using 3rd-party bus aggregators like FlixBus or Busticket4.me for domestic Montenegro routes as they often charge heavy commissions (up to 7-10 EUR per ticket).
Buy tickets directly at the local bus station (autobuska stanica) or from the driver. Real ticket prices (e.g., Podgorica-Kotor) are around 9.5 EUR.

For bus transport in Montenegro, use the 'busticket4.me' website (often requires a VPN if accessed from Russia).
However, it is frequently more reliable and accurate to buy tickets directly at the main bus stations in person. Local bus routes, including airport shuttles, often have schedules that are not fully reflected in online aggregators.
